    Good week for the kiwis as Steve Alker won on the old boys tour and Kazuma Kobori on the PGA Tour of Australasia.

    Foxy was going ok too but faded coming home in the final around. Could have been another pretty good finish

      So what does he win as an amatuer? $1.5m in pro shop credit?

      Lydia also had a good win on the LPGA overnight, winning by 2 shots. Her first win for over a year.

      @JK expect he'll earn a nice sponsorship deal...

      Foxy has hit some sublime shots, but putting let him down early.

        Yep and tour card too, if he actually wants it right now.

        2nd place getter picks up the $1.5m. Fedex points dont get passed down though.

          He's decided to go the professional route now.

            Crazy finish in the LPGA this morning with both Lydia and Nelly making eagles on 17 and then Nelly birdieing 18 to force a play off.

            Korda ending up getting the win on the second playoff hole. Lydia with a pretty poor 3 putt. Korda managing to up and down after missing the green.

              Disappointing for Lydia. But she's off to a great start this season compared to last season

                Ryan Fox teeing it up at the WM Phoenix Open on Friday morning in Arizona. Hopefully he can put a solid couple of rounds together to make the cut after missing out at Torrey Pines in San Diego a couple weeks ago.

                  NZ Open starts today and it looks to be the best we've had for a wee while.

                  No Foxy but a decent field with a lot of up and coming players from both NZ and Aus, as well as a big Japanese contingent. Don't forget Steve Alker either. I bet he'd like to show up the youngsters.

                  I'm hoping my old mate Mike Hendry can win it as that would really make some come back story. If not then Kazuma for me. This kid is awesome to watch. Doesnt hit the ball super far but his approach shots in to greens and his touches with the putter and chipping are outstanding. Surely the next big thing in NZ golf.

                  Live scoring on https://nzopen.com/leaderboard/ and sky sports should have decent coverage each afternoon over the next 4 days

                    Not a great day for those i mentioned above. Bit of work to do for the likes of Alker to make the cut, with the cut looking likely to be under par.

                    Lead currently held by two Aussies Hend and Griffin at -7 but local lad (and LIV reserve) Ben Campbell is up there at -6 thanks to a nice eagle on 18.

                      Plenty of good scoring already today so projected cut at -2

                            and if anyone actually cares Abraham Ancer won the lastest LIV event in Hong Kong

                              Really hoped that Lyds was gonna kick on in R4 but didnt start too well yesterday. Tardy was a bit of a run away winner. Great last two rounds.

                                Yes as did I since she had a great finish to her third round.

                                  Surprised Tardy got to the first tee on time. I'll get my coat

                                    The unofficial 5th major starts later this week with the winner taking home $4.5 million.
                                    Unsurprisingly, Scottie Scheffler is the favorite to go back to back with Rory McIlroy the next

                                      Kazuma declared PGA Aus order of merit champion with one tournament still to go.
                                      Locks in his DP World Tour card after an awesome first season as pro (only turned pro in November), and also a starting spot at the Open!

                                          Quite a run through 14 to 18 for Fox - bogey, bogey, eagle, hole in one, bogey
